If you love playing Halo then you’ll love these new Webisodes. I believe this is one of the best productions I’ve seen, right up there with Ridley Scott’s Prometheus. Watch in full HD. Beautifully shot with the RED Epic in 2K Raw and down converted to 1080p.

Storyline

In 2525, as mankind has begun to colonise space, a group of cadets are training to fight against human insurrectionists. One of these cadets, Thomas Laskey, has doubts about his abilities as a soldier and his convictions for this war. Whilst he struggles with himself, the planet is invaded by an unknown alien race. Reeling under the assault, Laskey and his squad mates are rescued by John-117, one of the UNSC’s legendary SPARTAN-II super-soldiers. John must inspire Laskey to fulfill his potential as a soldier and a leader to fight against an enemy deadlier than any that humanity has faced before. Written by Marty Goodman
